Will CC fight for place in the Super League?: The hottest questions about Sion’s relegation chaos

Who does Sion boss Christian Constantin want to sue?

Against the Swiss Football League. A civil court will not hear the lawsuit. In sport, there is only one way to complain, which is to the International Court of Arbitration for Sport in Lausanne. So CC has to sue there.

Why does CC want to file a lawsuit?

On the one hand because he believes that serious referee and VAR errors have caused the possible relegation of FC Sion. On the other hand, he wants to file a lawsuit about granting the license to Yverdon because the promoted team only mentioned the Stade Municipal in its licensing file and no alternative stadium.

What chance does CC have?

In the case of the referee’s wrong decisions, absolutely none. In Yverdon’s case, it depends on what exactly was in the Yverdon file. If the Vaudois really only indicated one stadium, be it their own stadium or the Tourbillon in Sion, maybe CC would have a chance. But only if it can be shown that de Vaudois has made a serious mistake.

If Yverdon has improved after intervention by the license manager, who made it clear to the promoted side that an alternative stadium must be named and that you can’t just play countless rounds away from home, CC won’t stand a chance for CAS.

Does that also apply if Yverdon specifies the Sion tourbillon? The inhabitants of Vaud are not allowed to play there because they forgot to get permission from the canton and the police.

Even then! Yverdon has been given a deadline by the league to find an alternative stadium for the season to begin. Withdrawing the newcomer’s license would be disproportionate on the one hand and not in the interest of the sport on the other.

Where does Yverdon start the season?

The Biel Tissot Arena is an option. But now a new one is under discussion: the Bernese Wankdorf.

Hasn’t CC won the right to play before?

Yes, that was in 2003 when he took over Sion after a six-year absence. At that point, the club’s license would be revoked for mismanagement, which would have relegated Sion from the NLB to the 1st Division. CC fought back in civil court, went all the way to federal court and won. The club was accepted into the NLB Championship, entering three months late and making up for missed England weeks matches at Christmas. And in 2011, too, he threw the league into chaos after ignoring a FIFA transfer ban and fighting in civil court over points lost through forfeits until, after months of wrangling, 36 points were finally deducted.

Wouldn’t relegation be a chance for FC Sion to start again?

That would be it. The only thing missing is the belief that CC can run the club rationally and not just emotionally. In other words, that he counts on the next generation, makes meaningful transfers, creates a scouting division that earns the name or finds a trainer for a longer-term project, and then gives him unconditional confidence.

Will CC really stop supporting professional football in a year?

At least he hasn’t sent any other signals lately. At first, he probably just wanted to shake things up with this announcement. But neither politicians nor the public seriously raised their hands. Meanwhile, CC seriously wants to quit. Unless the city of Zion hosts him en masse regarding a stadium and training center project. But there is probably not enough money for that.

What happens to all contracts in case of a relegation of Sion?

Because FC Sion has neither a nullity clause in its contracts in the event of relegation, nor a pay cut, these remain valid. However, most high-paid players would hardly want to stay. An individual solution should be worked out for each contract. This also applies to the obligations with the sponsors.

Are there interested people who want to take over the club, especially because the purchase price would drop enormously as a result of relegation?

No! We still don’t know if CC really wants to sell, should an interested party get in touch or not. Maybe that will change with the descent, which FC Sion should be dirt cheap.
